Yesterday, Isaiah Briscoe suffered a head injury during Team USA Training Camp, and apparently, it’s serious enough to prevent him from traveling to the FIBA U19 World Championships in Greece later this month. USA Basketball just announced that Briscoe can’t travel with the squad because of his concussion, and will be replaced with Virginia Tech guard Justin Bibbs.
“I feel very bad for Isaiah,” Team USA Coach Sean Miller said (via Ben Roberts). “He had a tremendous attitude and was one of our overall best players.”
Tough blow for Briscoe, but hopefully he’s on the mend and will join his future teammates in Lexington soon.
